If only we had marshmallows[edit]

There are 10 bonfires (4 on ramps, 1 in center, 5 surrounding elemental source). A good map here: [1]

Is this still valid? Now it looks like there are only 1 + 1 + 5 bonfires reachable. Nevertheless, lighting up all bonfires doesn't unlock the achievement. However whether is is triggered at the end of the fractal is to be tested. 21:34, 05 March 2020 (UTC)

Still faster than light[edit]

Is the Still Faster than Light achievement still allowed? I've never heard of the Kleptomaniac fractal, and the achievement page points to this page. Daddicus (talk) 23:09, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

It points to the Aetherblade Fractal... --Gimmethegepgun (talk) 23:52, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
Yeah, but there's no lasers there, and it has nothing to do with stealing stuff. I'm confused. Daddicus (talk) 00:39, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
It refers to the final boss fight. Don't get hit by any of the three lasers - that includes the first phase (ground lasers), second phase (wall lasers) and third phase (ground and wall lasers). —Ventriloquist 01:24, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
Kleptotronic Advanced Designs (not Kleptomaniac) is the name of Frizz's lab. The original dungeon had a waypoint there with that name, and the achievement text is pretty much copy/paste from the original Faster than Light achievement from when that dungeon was out. Konig 07:41, 11 June 2016 (UTC)
Oh, those spinning clock hands. I never connected the name to them. Thanks! Daddicus (talk) 06:49, 12 June 2016 (UTC)

New (hidden)Achievement: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/Think-I-may-have-found-a-secret-Achievement/first#post6337554. --Inculpatus cedo (talk) 01:12, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

I thought I had added that, thanks for the catch! -Darqam (talk) 01:16, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

What happened to the No Lasers! page?[edit]

There is a piece of critical information on that page, but when I try to get to it, it redirects to this list. Daddicus (talk) 21:19, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

No, there's never been information on that page, it's only ever existed as a redirect. Basically you need to pick up the crystal when doing the maw fight - make sure there's always one on the ground nearby/you have stability to avoid being KD/your party aren't terrible + whatever you do, do not dodge during the laser.

Many of the achievements used to have independent pages. Maybe 3-4 years ago. This (definitely) was one of them. When someone decided to merge them all into on long list (like this page), they were no longer directly accessible. But, it definitely was there.
It's now lost, but if I recall correctly, it noted that you didn't have to go back to the observatory to "reset" the achievement. I'm going to try to figure it out and I'll post the results here. Daddicus (talk) 19:58, 24 March 2019 (UTC)
The "No Lasers!" page didn't existed in any way shape or form until Alex's bot made it at the end of June of last year as a redirect, and hasn't been edited since. The only Fractal achievement that has it's own page currently is Out of Cluck as far as I know. All other fractal related achievements that had pages(not very many) were so short that their guide was moved to the page of the fractal itself, so no content was lost and the rest Alex most of the achievement names as redirects last summer. If you have ideas for that particular achievement, it's likely better to post your results on the talk page for that particular fractal than here since people who are more interested in that fractal will wind up there more so than here. - Doodleplex 20:22, 24 March 2019 (UTC)

Falling! Screaming! Diving![edit]

There is no Falling! Screaming! Diving! achievement in my list. Did the diving achievement get removed? Daddicus (talk) 06:33, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

No, it's hidden until you get it. --BuffsEverywhere (talk) 06:41, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
OK, thank you. I'll make a note to that effect. Daddicus (talk) 00:12, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
OK, that doesn't seem possible. There's only one command in that section. Can someone else please add a note that Falling! Screaming! Diving! is hidden until achieved? Thanks! Daddicus (talk) 00:15, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
The achievement is already marked as hidden displayed with the Awakened suspicious (Forearmed Is Forewarned map icon).png icon. The wiki popup needs an introtext on List of hidden achievements, not sure how to do that though. —Kvothe (talk) 10:30, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
You are correct! Thank you! Daddicus (talk) 02:27, 16 May 2020 (UTC)

Fractal Fighter achievements[edit]

Does "unique fractals" mean unique types (i.e. Thaumanova, Aetherblade, ...) or does it mean unique Fractal Levels (i.e. does Volcanic level 1 and Volcanic level 19 count as two unique fractals)?

--Dark-Star (talk) 20:00, 16 September 2020 (UTC)*
It means unique types :)
